Welcome to John & Nancy's Website

This is a fun place for us to share our hobbies and projects.

Hobbies:

The Sewing Table is where Nancy creates clothing for our grandchildren, and doll dresses for their American Girl Dolls.

Natalie's bed was a creation by Grandpa.

The Doll Dresses album is a small sample of the American Girl doll dresses Nancy has created.

Emily and Garrett's Playhouse was built in mid-May, 2008.  Built to fit into a corner of the yard, all of the corners of this playhouse meet at 45 degree angles.

Christmas 2008 - John built a cooking center for Emily and Garrett's playhouse, and a doll clothes closet for Natalie.

2009 Projects - features some Christmas gifts for our granddaughters

John's Shop Images - shows photos of some of John's shop jigs

New Hardwood Floors - photos of our house transition from carpet to hardwood floors

Doll Armoires - here are photos of three of the armoire's John has made for Nancy and his granddaughters.

Christmas 2011 - Nancy made dresses for Emily's Dolls - photos are here.

John made a sewing desk for Natalie for her 12th birthday.  Photos are here. 

In January 2012, we had our backyard re-landscaped. Progress and completion photos are here.

In September, 2013, we bought a condo at our favorite mountain lake.  Here's the Condo site link -- the site is a work in progress. 

Travel:

We traveled to Japan in May of 2005 to visit with our friends.  We've posted a few photos from that trip.

We visited the Scottish highlands in September of 2006.  Here are a few photos from that trip.

We spent 3 1/2 weeks in New Zealand in early 2008.  Photos from that trip will be posted shortly (well, it's 2010 and they are still not posted - sorry)

We chased the Fall Colors in New Hampshire and Vermont between October 6-20, 2009.  Photos are posted here.

Special Occasions:

Check out the nifty birthday cakes that our daughter makes!
